“Let me tell you, we’re creating some amazing things. I can’t show it to you today but I have, like, a horse than can talk and shit out gold dust. Amazing things. A teapot that can dance. A tortoise that can piss out bourbon.” Share price go up.

X/Twitter screenshot from Fireside Alpha. @firesidealpha Palmer Luckey reveals Anduril is building something that makes 50 years of firearms development irrelevant, but he can't tell you what that is today. "I'm building things today that we could have built 100 years ago and it would have changed everything." "We're building things, for example, that would have made the last 50 years of firearms development completely irrelevant." "Like, let's make every gun that has been designed since the 50s or so, since Eugene Stoner invented the AR platform at Armalite Rifle, we're going to make everything since that irrelevant. And you could have actually done this in the 20s." "I can't tell you exactly what it is." [Photo of a white man in a podcast studio.]

"Plug-in systems can be used by renters and people living in apartments who can’t access traditional rooftop solar. If they’re good enough for Germany and the UK, they’re good enough for us." reneweconomy.com.au/if-theyre-go...

"If they're good enough for Germany..." New Zealand set to beat Australia to legalising plug-in solar

Major NZ government review finds "no good reason" for preventing Kiwis from using plug-in solar, and may make it legal within a year. Will Australia follow?

we fell for this the last ten times - the way political journalists perform for each other and not the public interest - and call it democracy lmao as tho any of us need to hear corporate media amplify and sanitise Hanson and then normalise their amplification of Hanson via shitshows like this.

#PaulineHanson: There's a lot of media here. Are you really concerned the #ABC aren't here? Journalist: In a #democracy shouldn't all #media have access to a press conference particularly if you're, as you say, running to form a government in the November state election? #AUSPOL #SpringSt #PHON

Pauline Hanson flees her own custom-curated presser. With ABC & Guardian banned, & far-right criminal Avi Yemini running interference, still can’t handle questions, even from Sky “Shouldn't all media have access...?"💥 Not even sidekick Avi could save her from total humiliation.

George Forster’s “voyage to the South Atlantic was full of wonders: phosphorescence that set the sea ablaze, dolphins chasing flying fish, sapphire icebergs turning gold and purple as the sun set.” —Jenny Uglow

Wonder & Disillusion | Jenny Uglow

The naturalist George Forster was fascinated by plants and animals, but he was also driven by a passionate belief in the rights of all people regardless of race, gender, or social status.
